? The Dawes Loan
Almost seven years have elapsed i since the Hoover-or-eanized
Reconstruction Finance corporation extended a has
tily-made 190,000,000 loan to the Central Republic bank and
Trust company of Chicago the Dawes bank. - Economically
the loan was meritorious: politically it was a blunder. It
trapped up the weakened mid-west banking structure but the
oan brought devastating criticism upon the administration,
provoking the justifiable comment that a banfchad to be large

Jesse Jones, reporting currently for the RFC, outlines
the liquidation of' the loan. Thus far, interest and principal
payments to RFC total $62,383,207. Stockholders have paid
S7.300.000 on $15,000,000 of assessments although they have
fought through the courts RFCs undeniable right to extract
such assessments. Jones estimates remaining collateral, ior

were aided by the loan. -
. . It-Did happen There .
No recent domestic incident has so upset New York City
as the conviction and now the sentencing of James J. Hines,
Tammany political chieftain. Tammany could lose tempor
arily political caste, its men might be off the payroll but for
Ilines, more powerful in the palmy days than any major, to
"take the rap that is too much for sophisticated New York.
. - Hie rest of the country is gladdening by the Hines con
viction and sentence. As the evidence unfolded it seemed very
certain that Hines bad been a high priced buffer for "Dutch
Schultz .numbers racket But Tammany .had its own devious
methods of taking-care, of its men. Small wonder that Hines
was pale and nervous when the sentence was read and that
his lawyer blanched; For the time being at least, political cor
ruption has met its master in New York, .
With Hines in prison, young Tom Dewey, who led in the
prosecution, is pushed -further into the spotlight as a presi
dential candidate. Dewey has vigor; and integrity ; he also has
political charnu To the rest of the states, as in his own com
monwealth, Dewey ia now the favorite for the nomination in
1940. A vigorous life insurance expose brought Charles'Ev
' ans Hughes to the New York governorship; the Boston police

prosecution and conviction may yet prove the turning point

The Nesmith home on North
Cottage street in Salem was a
prominent one.. So was the Bell
home, in the same house, for 'a
lone time. In . the Bell family
were a number of Tery popular
and attractive daughters.
Let's so back and take up the
thread of J. W. Nesmlth's life
after embarking on the Journey
to Oregon with the 1843 covered
wagon train.
It is a long story 'with room
for only few snatches. . That
wagon train broke the road
(the Oregon Trail) over the
Blue mountains. It took the la-

c. Kaiser, one of the chiefs of
that clan, said Nesmith carried
his axe on his .back all the way
across the Blue mountains.
He had read . law after arriv
ing at Oregon City, between
tasks as a carpenter, and the
1 8 4 4 provisional government
legislature elected Nesmith su
preme Judge of Oregon..
m
He was elected to the 1847
session of the provisional gov
ernment legislature, also that -of
1848, but did not attend the
last named session, because he
had joined the' California gold
rush.
In that period he became :a

gristmill on the Rkkreaii, above

of Judge R. P. Boise, who
erected and ran a woolen mill
there. The water tower for the
Kristmlll was surveyed by Jesse

lies north. The same water
power was afterward used for
the woolen mill. In the period
under discussion, Nesmith and
O'Neal sent by packtrala flour
to Fort Sutter. CaL. to suddIv

the gold rash; and it is said
some wheat came from as far as
Fort Sutter to be ground at that

By DOROTHY
TTf oaoiiilr Weapon .
The decision ef the United
States to raise the datles en Ger-
snan goods by. Is per cent was
wholly a politi
cal gesture, al
though its tim
ng was un
doubtedly moti
vated by the
wanton seisure
of - Cx echo-Slovakia
by the nail
government.
N e vertheless,
borl. the state
and treasury de-
Dorothy Thompson partmenta . had
reached ' the conclusion two
months age that, under the man
datory provisions of Section 303
of the tariff act, countervailing
duties would have to ba put on
against Germany.
This section provides that if
any country pays a subsidy on
exports to the VUted States
which might circumvent the es
tablished tariff we taust apply a
countervailing duty.
The tariff act was passed in
1930, at a time when the meth
ods of doing business in this
world were relatively simple.
Today they are incredibly com
plicated, and It 4s far from sim
ple to determine what .is a sub
sidy. Many months ago the treas
ury department applied counter
duties, to ten German commodi
ties. When this happened Ger
many sent a commission over.-to
investigate, and as a result of
their findings made certain
changes which tho treasury ac
cepted. .
Under the terms of the agree
ment reached then the American
exporter, could sell abroad, get
German 'marks, buy goods with
them and bring these goods Into
this country.
As a result of this agreement,
the import ot German goods con
siderably increased, and com
plaints were mada to Washing

Again the ' treasury made, a
stady and decided that what was
being done differed from what
had been agreed upon.
Fully three months ago the
state department had reached the
conclusion that Section 302 was
still being violated, and two
months ab the attorney general
reached the same conclusion.
But action was delayed, and
had It not been for the Cxech
coup there is no question that
this country . would have given
the German government time to
make adjustments.

The economic weanon reallv
wielded in the hands of the
world democracies would be an
enormously effective force
against the present German gov
ernment. , I .
It miaht easily be the abso
lutely decisive force. But if it
la to be effective It should be
swift and comprehensive. And
the difficulty of making it effec
tive is tne oiincuity of collabo
ration.
It becomes increainalv clear
even to Mr. Chamberlain and the
Daiadier-Bonaet government in
France that the world today is
faced by only three alternatives.
The first is that Germany,
Italy and Japan, who are now
in the most perfect strategical
position and whj pursue their
way without the slightest regard
for any agreements, using revo
lution, trsde saueese. war. enor
mous propaganda, espionage and
all the Implements of war in
time of so-callei peace, will
meet nothing more than periodic
protests and will gradually take
over the control of most of thia
earth.
The second is that at
point this process will be check
ed by war, which, since last
week, has a very small chance of
oeing isolated.
The third la that it h marin
almost impossible for this reeim
in Germany to survive, and that
it give way to another regime
with which the whole world
could cooperate to start anew
on a basis of eqnaUty and jus
tice. o o o
The third would be the chean-
est and the beat solution for
everyooay, tut; It would involve
giving, no comfort or aid what.
soever to the present regime in
Benin. would involve the rec-
OKUition at loner lant that It
impossible to live In t9 same
world with a regime whose
whole tactic is the tactic of the
underworld.
The weakness of the demoom.
cles is their lack cf imagination
ad tho belief of certain people
in the democracies that they can
have the best of toth worlds.
Thus reoresenUtires f th
British . Industrie! have. tn
the very explosion of last week,

This 'was all in kirmnrr with
the appeasement program of

been partially responsible for
the happy optimism that per
vaded certain sections of Wall
street Just before the nasi gov
ernment broke loose again.
The conclusion reached by the
British and German Industrial
ists comprised some ten para
